Hi Adrian, Aurel.
I am not sure why Adrian consider that .dovecot.lda-dupes would have been
changed like this?
Your problem is that you have configured mail home and mail location to point to
same place, causing dovecot to consider .dovecot.lda-dupes as a maildir folder.
This is a very common misconfiguration, which leads into exactly this kind of
issues.
The recommended configuration is to configure mail_location=maildir:~/mail to
avoid this issue.
